Custom Furniture & Home Finishes, Made in Granger, Iowa

At Heartland Timber, your furniture doesn’t start in a lumber yard — it starts with a tree. We mill our own lumber on our Wood-Mizer LT40 HD sawmill and kiln-dry it in-house to a target moisture of 8–10%, then turn it into custom furniture and home finishes built to fit your space and style. That start-to-finish control is how we make pieces that last for generations — and as a proud member of the Urban Wood Network, much of our wood comes from trees that might otherwise have been destroyed, given a second life in your home.

From stair treads and risers to dining tables, bartops, and floating shelves, everything below is made to order. Tell us what you’re picturing, and we’ll build it around your dimensions, your wood, and your finish.

Pricing: Every project is custom, so pricing is quoted per project — no published price list.

Dining Tables & Bartops

Live edge hardwood dining table with epoxy fill, custom built by Heartland Timber — The McGee/Allely Project

The McGee/Allely Project →

A dining table or bartop built around your room — not the other way around. Each one is fully customized to your dimensions, with multiple epoxy fill colors available if your slab has character you’d like to highlight rather than hide. Choose an oil based finish or an epoxy flood coat finish, and we’ll take it from there. Delivery is available.

Restaurant and Cafe Tables

Custom tables built for daily commercial use, fully customized to your dimensions so your seating layout works exactly the way you need it to. Choose from many leg styles to match your space, add epoxy fill in multiple available colors, and finish with either an oil based finish or an epoxy flood coat finish. Delivery is available for restaurant and cafe orders, too.

Delivery is available within a 2-hour radius of Granger, IA (50109); a delivery fee applies.

Small Tables & Benches

Side tables, coffee tables, entry benches, and more — fully customized to your dimensions, with many leg styles to choose from and multiple epoxy fill colors available. Each piece is finished with oil-based lacquer for a durable, ready-to-use surface.

Floating Shelves & Mantles

Live edge floating hardwood shelf by Heartland Timber

Floating Shelves

Floating shelves with your choice of a live edge or square front, in multiple wood species and various widths and depths. Our shelves average 1-3/4” thick — substantial enough to show off the grain and hold real weight in a kitchen, living room, or office.

Mantles

Mantles with a live edge or square front, in multiple wood species and various widths and depths, typically 3” or thicker for that solid, anchor-the-room presence. Every mantle includes brackets and hanging screws, so you have what you need to hang it.

Good to know: Shelves and mantles are supply-only — brackets and hanging screws are included with mantles, and installation is up to you or your installer.
